I was treated very well by, masami and his dad, (Mike?) Walker (twister motors), Jurgen Laughtenbach, Cliff Lett, Mike reedy, Craig Drecher and a couple french guys who I dont recall their names. The reedy race was a race for Mike himself, to celebrate his birthday. The one year (89 i think) they had a celebrity lady wrestler who did a mock wrestling match with Mike Reedy himself...I wish I had my camera!

that would of been funny as hell to see mike reedy battling it out with a female wrestler.

That is a nice looking car you have man. I recently picked up an MR4BC as well. It is nice to see others with these cars and hear about the history ou have been exposed to.

Thanks for the pics. I remember loving the Reedy Race because all top drivers where invited to go and I always look forward to the R/C Car Action to come put with the race report because it had the wining rides in detail. :D

Thanks again notme. Very cool.
